I recommend something like this, especially for long drives. The GX head rest isn't as forward as some newer car (which is a good thing) but a bit back so your shoulder/neck muscle could get tired. Having something to to fill that gap could reduce a lot of fatigue. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have something similar for my Odyssey but just tried this one in my nephew's RC350 and it felt really good. I just bought 2 set. One for the GX and one for the wife's Camry.
Lol look at her wet door panel. Rainy weather or not, photoshoot must go on!
The neck support arrives and it feels really nice. It would be great for long trips (or even daily driving) where you want to straighten up the back but still want support for the head and neck. I think it would definitely reduce a lot of fatigue
Well, after shoulder and neck pains, i gave up today. Traded in the GX460......a wonderful practical SUV that my upper back simply does not agree with. I went ahead and got it's bigger cousin.
I just bought 2021 GX 460. Took a trip out to Mountain High from LA, about 120 miles each way. Guess what, my back is screaming at me. I don't think i can drive 10K miles in this seat before it "breaks in". I only owned a car for 5 days, should i contact Lexus dealer and try to return it? How does this usually works out?

Not sure if a return for a new GX (or refund entirely) will resolve this as the seat has a characteristic that seems to aggravate limited owners.
Did you ever find a solution to the seat. Im having the same issue. Bought a used 2018 and not sure if the person before me just wore out the padding and now the lumbar is pushing out a little more
The seats are not Recaro seats, that is for sure. You’ll get used to them not visa versa. My wife’s last car, a 14 Yukon Denali had great seats as were the seats in my last F150 Platinum. The GX seats will wear like iron though and last a long time though.
I'm grateful, I love my seats. Flew across the country to pick up mine - and the drive home was excellent. (Former owner of BMW X5 w/ multi-contour seats, so I was spoiled.)
Hmm... Maybe that reliability thing just makes me feel better!
